Bethesda forum censors working quietly in the background.

I REALLY hate the moderators on the forums over there.

 

Warned for having an image in my signature. Uhh, okay. Apparently some people's connections can't handle an extra 250kb per pageload.

Warned for having oversized text in my signature. I'm sure that this had nothing to do with the fact that the text was negative towards bethesda.

Warned for "arguing" about which platform is best. This was easily the stupidest. One guy said 360 is better than PC because you can play on your couch. I told him you could with a PC on TV via HDMI then he raged. Somehow I was the instigator.

Banned for bypassing the forum censor. Apparently, using the word "s***" in a post DEFENDING obsidian is a no-no. -_-

Completely IP banned from the forums because I made one comment about piracy, no warnings, no messages, just direct, silent and mercyless ban.

The censorship is the same for a lot of companies though. Hell ive been struggeling with it on IMVU for some time now. Its like this: Yes we have the right to say what we wanna say, but they also have the right to take it off of THEIR message board.

 

As for Beth vs Obsidian... I had a nightmare when i got fallout 3, it was a year after release and I had a bug that made completing the game IMPOSSIBLE (couldnt enter the Jefferson Memorial Gift shop from any door, even after reloading, loading an earlier save, erasing all data and starting again and getting a new disc) And that was on 360 so I couldnt hack my way past it or fix it. What made me even more mad was, that rather than PATCHING the bugs that made the game completely unbeatable, they were throwing out DLC after DLC. Cause people dont pay more money for patches!

 

That being said I even tried to start a boycott of Bethsoft until they started supporting their games. As of yet I havnt heard if they have done that, so I still refuse to buy a Bethsoft game. When I heard FNV was being made by Obsidian, I was phyced. I dont intend on buying another Bethgame ever.

 

Now in comparison, FNV is far from perfect, but its far from ANY other game thats come out as of recent as well. The dog eyes freaked me out but they patched it WITHIN A WEEK. Other issues have arisen that have bothered me but so far nothing game-breaking. And im impressed that they are actually working hard to fix the problems that are there. So Kudos to Obsidian. You won a customer.

the july 4747 @2:34 pm is just lultastic tho i mean they got to have a sense of humor about the thing or that is some funny goof. so 2000 some years from now at 2:34 pm you can login again bet you cannot wait!

 

That's probably the date they intend to fix FO3 by.

It should be noted that you are now banned forever from there, they never reverse their bans. You can still read the boards though just delete your session cookie.

Yeah, that's exactly what I did. Created a new account called "urb".

Anyways, the people from obsidian on the forums are really helpful and informative. Shame the general mods aren't.
